How to get the desired campaign craft

[Olham 164]

I noticed from some posts, that some of the proceedures in OFF are not familiar to everyone.

Some seem to start a campaign with a new Jasta/Squadron at the earliest dates only.

 

Now, during the 4 years of war, new pilots came any time, and so can you.

 

You want the earliest available Albatros DII for example, without flying the Eindecker and the Halberstadt

before you get there some day (if you don't die before)?

Well, you enlist a new pilot and choose Jasta 2 then. (You can read there, which craft they will get at various

times in the war). Now you can advance the time by clicking on that

arrow to the right. With the changing dates, the craft that Jasta flies, will change too.

So when you read "Albatros DII", you could stop and enlist.

That way, you may click through the whole Jasta, to see, which craft arrived when.

 

Feel free to start any date you like. Pilots, who where too young in 1915, may have entered the war in 1917

or 1918. So why shouldn't you?

You feel a desire for nice summer wheather? Start a pilot in June - August somewhere.

You want to experience different areas?

Create two or three pilots for these and fly at the north sea, whenever you feel like that.

 

The choice is immense in BHaH - make good use of it.

Good post- I suspect there are quite a few who didn't realize that they could start off ( ahem )

in 1917 and 1918 in the "proper" planes ( Don't all attack at once )
